New Delhi: The opposition slammed PM Narendra Modi over his ‘everyone will regret’ remark on the electoral bonds issue.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accused Modi of orchestrating this purported “extortion scheme”.

“The important thing in electoral bond is- names and dates. If you see the names and dates you will know that when they (donors) gave the electoral bond, right after that contract was given to them or CBI inquiry was withdrawn against them,” the Wayanad MP was quoted by ANI as saying.

Rahul Gandhi accused PM Modi of orchestrating this purported "extortion scheme," saying,"This is the biggest extortion scheme of the world and PM Modi is the mastermind...Ask the PM to explain that one day CBI inquiry starts and immediately after that they get the money and immediately after that CBI inquiry is scrapped."
